When selecting a pre-insulated pipe system for a buried heat network, many developers and installers choose one type of system or service pipe.
The larger networks opt for pre-insulated steel systems – mid-size networks often choose polymer-based rigid systems and the networks that provide heat to the smallest consumers typically pick flexible polymer systems delivered in coils.It does not have to be a single system, having all these options and more within our Hiline range of pre-insulated pipes, we advocate a Hybrid approach, that enables developers and installer to mix and match the types of systems used to ensure the very best solution.
This can lower CAPEX and speed up installation times, with different skills required to install each type of system, there is a bigger pool of available installers. Underpinned with a range of pre-fabricated fittings, joints and other associated equipment we are ready to support networks in service pipe diameters up to DN 1,200mm – which caters for the very largest city-scale network.
We back all this up with UK-based world-class engineering and project support that ensures the best outcomes for our clients' projects. To discuss your heat networks requirements, please contact our technical support team as they have a wealth of experience that can really add value to your project.
